It is a new week and Ashley has assigned me a new green challenge. This week the environmental task is to learn about grey water and make some changes that can help reuse, recycle or reduce. I am vaguely familiar with the term ‘grey water’, so this should be an interesting week.
The internet defines grey water as “Greywater, also known as sullage, is non-industrial wastewater generated from domestic processes such as dish washing, laundry and bathing.” So, I guess my task for the week is to learn about the waste we produce in these household tasks and try and implement changes that can help reduce or recover this water.
I was hoping not to be one of those crazy people who fill buckets from bathwater for household use, but I think I just might cross that line this week. Who am I really kidding anyhow? I have been slightly crazy from the beginning. I hope you join me on this week’s green journey learning about, and acting to recycle, grey water. Please let me know if you have any stories or tips on how you use your greywater.
